"The Aljur and Kylie story is a testament that at times; the journey to 'ever after' is not as smooth as we want it to be. It takes commitment, perseverance, and faith that no matter what happens, love would endure. And on their big day, it thrived and triumphed above all," reads the videographer's caption for the video.

Kylie's pregnancy was an unexpected but pleasant surprise, and the actress' dad Robin Padilla was very vocal about his wish for the two to marry right away. But Kylie stood her ground. While she was in constant communication with both her parents during her pregnancy, Aljur had to wait for the right moment.

The couple welcomed their son, Alas Joaquin, in August 2017, and since then have worked towards getting their families together. Aljur finally met Robin early last year when he formally asked Kylie's hand for marriage.

The groom also posted a message of gratitude to his in-laws for welcoming him to the family. "For always fighting what's best for us that pushed me to be a better man for your own daughter, I feel blessed and grateful to have you as my in-laws," he wrote. "I am always in favor of your wisdom, kindness, and understanding. I am eager to get to know you more, serve you more, and learn from you," Aljur added.
